  • Patent number: 7829073
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to anhydrous compositions for making up or caring for the skin, for example foundations, comprising at least one liquid organic phase comprising at least one non-volatile oil, at least one amorphous gelling polymer formed by polymerization of an olefin, and poly(methyl methacrylate) particles, wherein the amount of the at least one non-volatile oil present in the composition is greater than the amount of poly(methyl methacrylate) particles present in the composition. The compositions may exhibit a smooth and melting creamy texture, spread easily over the skin, and make it possible to obtain a homogeneous make-up that has a powdery and matt finish and that confers a pleasant softness on the skin. The make-up may also exhibit good properties of hold.
